Celebrating his 20th birthday alone at a restaurant, Jiro, a shy university student, is approached by a cute girl and spends an unforgettable evening with her before she vanishes. A year later the girl reappears but Jiro notices some changes–particularly her superhuman strength and robotic behavior. Korean director Kwak Jae Yong (My Sassy Girl, 2001) teams up with a Japanese cast and crew in this sci-fi romantic comedy that pays homage to Terminator, Back to the Future and Doraemon, Japan’s most beloved manga.

2008, 120 min., 35mm. Directed by Kwak Jae Yong. With Haruka Ayase and Keisuke Koide.
